Submitted by admin on Thu, 06/22/2006 - 16:50

Online basketball betting for New Year’s Eve on the Nets and Pistons is a possible Eastern conference post season basketball betting matchup.

Online basketball betting improvement has come New Jersey’s way recently while the Pistons have offered little in basketball betting value. After a sluggish start to the online basketball betting season the New Jersey Nets climbed near the .500 mark with a straight up record of 14-15, which was good for 2nd place in the Atlantic division standings but light years behind the Boston Celtics.

The Nets were 15-14 against the NBA betting odds. New Jersey’s best online basketball betting strength, however, has been on the road as they were 10-3 against the spread when traveling. The Nets were also a solid 13-8 against the spread as an online basketball betting dog.

New Jersey’s online basketball betting asset is Devin Harris who led the team in scoring with an average of 23.6 points per game and assists with an average of 6.6 per game. The Nets were ranked a good 10th overall on the basketball betting offensive stat charts but were an abysmal 26th overall on defense.

New Jersey had a strong online basketball betting trend going in which the road team was 21-8 against the spread in all of their games. The dog was a strong 19-10 against the basketball betting board in all New Jersey games as well. The Detroit Pistons and online basketball betting have NOT been synonymous this season.

While Detroit was a decent 16-11 straight up they were a mirror opposite against the NBA betting odds with a mark of 11-16. Detroit’s online basketball betting problem stems from being a highly successful team over the past few seasons.

The general online basketball betting public still considers Detroit a power team and is willing to take bad value as a result. It is obvious to good online basketball betting handicappers that the Pistons are a notch below what they used to be and nowhere near the Boston Celtics or Cleveland Cavaliers for Eastern conference supremacy.
